“Personally, I agree with Thoreau’s definition: ‘A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone.’
If you’re spending most of your time working on things you care about and you’re having the experiences you want to be having, that’s success.
Thinking of success more as a ‘state of being’ and less as an accomplishment is a very useful mindshift. Instead of focusing on how to make enormous sums of money or become famous, figure out how you could live your life without worrying about money or without caring whether or not people notice you. The end result is often the same, but it’s a completely different way to experience life.”
